Filtered Value in Reports

Hi all,
I have a requirement where in whenever a user filters on any characteristic in the report a dynamic text should appear on a screen which says, "Report filtered by - XXXX".
I tried using info item and dynamic filters but that doesnt serve my purpose , because they are always visible on the screen even if the data is not filtered on any characterictic.
Can anyone please help me with this.
Any ideas or suggestions will be very helpfull.
I promise to assign points for helpfull answers.
Thanks in advance,
Vivek

If you are using the web application designer, the "filter" web item could be entered above the query results. The properties of the "filter" could be set to always show by removing the checkmark from "collapsed".
If you are not using a web template, a simple BEX query that has the first object placed in the rows section would sort the results by the characteristic which the user entered via a variable. The column heading could be changed to be anything that you want it to say.

How to refresh list item values before report is run?

We have two SELECT LIST items (drop boxes) on our report. One SELECT LIST has values of "World Region" (e.g. NORTH AMERICA, SOUTH AMERICA, EUROPE, ASIA)
the other SELECT LIST has values of "Subregion" (e.g. NORTHERN EUROPE, SOUTHERN EUROPE, SOUTHEAST ASIA etc...)
The values in the Subregion list are dependent on the value that is chosen from the "World Region" List. Can someone tell up how to update the values in the Subregion list BEFORE we submit the page? We can get these values to update (via sql query) when the page is submitted but that is only happening after the report gets run- which is not what we want. We want the user to select a Region from one SELECT LIST and then see all the qualifying Subregions for that Region in the Subregion SELECT LIST. Only after both Region and Subregion have been selected do we want to run the report. Thank for any help on this.

hey john--
john) things like Scott's reference to "The name of the LOV Item". What does this really mean?
raj) in htmldb there's a concept of items at the page and at the app level. page level items have ui component associated with them. in scott's explanation above, he's talking about using a page-level item with a "Display as" type of "select list w/submit" for your first select list. in that case, he's suggesting you have one select list item drive the values of another. when the self-submitting select list submits the page, it sets an htmldb built-in variable called :REQUEST to the name of the self-submitting select list item. in your follow-up post's example, that'd be "REGION_LIST". scott was explaining how you could control the functionality on your page by adding conditions to things like...
:REQUEST = 'REGION_LIST'
...or using declarative Condition options like "Request = Expression 1" and then putting the string "REGION_LIST" in that Expression1 field. so in your case, you have a report region that you don't want displayed until the user's done selecting from your Subregion list. an easy way to handle that would be to add a hidden item (where "Display as" is set to "Hidden") to your page, for example :P1_LAST_REQUEST, to store the last value of :REQUEST. put a Computation on your page that populates :P1_LAST_REQUEST with :REQUEST each time the page is submitted. then put a Condition on your report region that makes it only render when :P1_LAST_REQUEST != 'REGION_LIST'. so this way your users can select a Region and have the page submit itself. the page will then redraw with the values of subregion list correctly populated (you'd presumably use :REGION_LIST in your subregion LOV query to achieve the filtered values) w/o your report region displayed. the user would then select a correct subregion and click some sort of "run my report" button. this time when the page redraws, :P1_LAST_REQUEST would be set so something other than "REGION_LIST" (it'd be set to whatever you named your "run my report button") and so your report region would display as desired.
hope this helps,
raj

How to pass value from report to form?

Dear,
I built a report and I create button on report too. This
button will show a form that I want it to automatically show
receivable values from report so that user don't complete them.
So I create a button on the report . I enter Javascript in
PL/SQL Code tab in '...after displaying the footer' as follow :
htp.formOpen
(owa_util.get_owa_service_path||'portal30.wwa_app_module.link?
p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=1736929105&p_arg_names=_show_h
eader&p_arg_values=YES&p_arg_names=GNO&p_arg_values=1&p_arg_names
=QNO&p_arg_values=2');
htp.formSubmit(null,'New Answer');
htp.formClose;
GNO , QNO is value which I want to pass
As you can see, the above code can pass only static value.
But I want to pass values that is the condition of this report.
I mean,such as, this report show data that gno=1 and qno=2 and I
want to pass these values to form. So both value will appear in
gno and qno field.
So please tell me what should I do. Please help me. I don't
know how to do it. I look forward to hearing from all of you.
Please!!!!!! Don't hesitate to answer.
Thank you very much

Hi Marc,
Yes, you have it correct in what I am trying to do and if I put a default value in the hidden item on page 2 and run it then that works fine. I just can't get the value from the form passed to page 2 for some reason. There are actually 22 items on the form that can be filtered but just using COREID for simplicity. When I run the form I am just entering a value in the COREID field to try and return those records. Most of the other items on the form are displayed as Popup LOV(fetches first row). Would the values of all these be done the same in a comma delimited list for the items and values? I was trying to get at least one of them working first. Here is the search result that comes up in the debug window:
Search Results
0.01: Item: P2_COREID HIDDEN
0.01: show report
0.02: determine column headings
0.02: parse query as: MOTEAMSAPEX
0.02: binding: ":P2_COREID"="P2_COREID" value=""
0.02: print column headings
0.02: rows loop: 15 row(s)
No data found.
Here is the SQL statement:
select coreid, serialnumber
from MOTEAMS.V_ASSETS where
instr(UPPER("COREID"), UPPER(:P2_COREID)) > 0
The branch settings are:
Set these items: P2_COREID
With these values: &P1_COREID (also tried this with period at the end)
I am new to this and not familiar with apex.oracle.com. How would I go about posting to that site?
Thanks,

hi Neeraj,
1. In Universe Take Storename, city, State, region, Country objects
2. Double click on Storename, go to properties tab and click on edit button. Query panel will open.
3. Double click on city and click on sort button, double click on state and sort it, double click on region and sort it, double click on Country and sort it.
4. If you want to keep any condition like particular country, you can drag country object in to the Conditions pane. If not leave it empty.
5.Click on Save and close button. Save the universe and export it.
6. In webI drag and drop the Storename object and click on 'Add Quick Filter' button. Now all the columns you included in the list of values appear in the Add Quick Filter dialog box.
Now You can select the values from here and run the query. you will get the result.
One more way is there using cascading LOVs
1. Go to Tools menu > List of values > Create Cascading list of values.
2. Double click on Country, Region, State, City and Storename. Close it.
3. Save and export the universe.
4. In webi drag and drop the objects in result objects pane, apply query filter and run the query.
Now you will get the result.

Release Value Contract Report

Hi,
As we can get individual customer released value contract amount through T Code VA43 and report Via T code Z_XX_SD_059 for mass customers which is usually not giving the correct amount of released from value contract. The report which is extracted via T code Z_XX_SD_059 normally not reconciled with the end result of T Code VA43.So, Is there any other T code for getting correct release value contract report for multiple customers? Please share if anyone knows.

Hi,

Retruning parameter/value from report to form - (Urgent)

Hi ,
I am calling a report (2.5) from a form using RUN_PRODUCT. I would like to know if there is any way to do the following.
(a) Return a value from reports to calling form. For ex. I would like to know the last Item name (assuming the reports prints all items in inventory) printed. I am sending a from and to numbers of item id's (range) and I need to know the last item printed.
(b). Check the success of report. For example, while printing the 5 items (the range that I passed) if there is any error in printing , this should be tracked either in the form or report. If this is not possible using run_product , If I need to use srw package, how to use it. Can I call the report as usual with run_product and in the after parameter trigger can, I call the report again and track error.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Problem using default value of report parameter 1 to validate parameter 2 passed in to report

I am having a problem with an SSRS report using the default value of report parameter 1 to validate parameter 2 passed in to report (via C#) instead of using the value of parameter 1 that is also passed into the report. Here are the
simplified details:
Using SSDT, SQL Server 2008 R2
SSRS report has 2 parameters:
P1 -- text, hidden, default value 'R1', ... front-end C# code can pass 'R2' or 'R1'
P2 -- text, allows multiple values, list of available values provided by stored procedure (sproc_list) that takes P1 value as a parameter. Hence, sproc_list either provides a list for P1 = 'R1' or P1 = 'R2'.
List for P1 = 'R1' is 'A', 'B', 'C'
List for P1 = 'R2' is 'A', 'B', 'D'
Values for P1 and P2 can be passed in via C# to the report.
The C# front-end displays 2 report choices to the user, R1 and R2, where both choices call the same RDL; but choice R1 passes in 'R1' for P1, and the choice R2 passes in 'R2' for P1.
Upon a users 1st time use of the report no parameters are passed in. Then when the user exits the report, the parameter value for P2 that was chosen is saved off to a file for R1 or R2, and used the next time the user selects the report.
Everything always works fine for report R1 since the default value for P1 is 'R1'.
When R2 is chosen and the user selects 'D' as the value for P2, runs the report, then exits, the P2 value of 'D' for R2 is saved to a file. When the user returns the next day to run report R2, 'R2' is passed for P1, and 'D' is passed for P2.
This is when the problem occurs. The value of 'D' for P2 is validated against a list generated for P2 based on the default value of 'R1' for parameter P1. Hence, SSRS considers 'D' an invalid value for P2 and blanks out the P2 parameter.
The user can then use the drop down list for P2 and choose 'D', but this defeats the purpose of saving the parameter values to be used the next time.
Why is the stored procedure that provides a list of available values for parameter P2 using the default value of 'R1' for parameter P1 instead of using the value of 'R2' passed into the report for parameter P1?

Hi Tom,
Sorry for my delay.
If I understand correctly, you have two parameter in your report. It is a couple of cascading parameter. If we have choose ‘R1’ of P1, the P2 values is A, B, C. ‘R2’ of P1, corresponding P2 values is A, B, D. What your requirement is to save the end use
select option of these two parameters.
In SSRS, if we have configure the parameter with default value. When we run the report, the parameter will fill with the default value to filter data. If we want to save the last status we are render the report, we need to update the default value of P1.
If we are query the default value from database, if possible, we can
update the database try to resolve the issue. Alternatively, we can set the dynamic default value for the parameter.
Hope this helps.

Issue with filtering values in Web Template

I am facing a problem with filtering values in Web Template.
I have two queries based on two different data providers. One query is getting data from an Info set and the other from a Remote Cube. I have a single navigational block to filter values for both these queries but the change gets reflected only on the variable of one query. The other reflects no change and shows all the values irrespective of the filter condition.
I have tried the option of setting in the properties of the navigational block, affected data providers as both your data providers.But no effect.
Can a single navigational block be used to filter values on 2 queries which are built on different data providers? If yes, can someone please tell me how it is possible?
Kindly let me know how can I make the changes appear in both the queries?I am using SAP BI 3.5.
Thanks & Regards,

Where is the value of report repository stored in the database?

Hi all,
One of our developers is trying to write a code that would send the output report (pdf)of a process through mail, typical work flow stuff.But the problem is that we are not supposed to hard code the value of report repositiry from where the report has to be picked.can anybody suggest a table in the database from where the value of report repository can be queried.
we tried using
select reportrepositorypt from pswebprofile.
but this doesnt return the correct path. we went to PIA->peopletools->webprofile ->webprofie configuration
here we updated the value in report repository field and saved it and queried again.
But this didnt solve our problem.
Its showing the previous value which is different from the actual report repository path.
all the servers are in solaris box.
please suggets.
Thanks!

Right now, I am trying to send a PDF (XML Publisher report) as an email to our vendors (it is their ACH Advice).
What I have done so far is: Created an App Engine, one step to populate a state record with run control information and the second step that runs XML Publisher and creates PDF report(s) which are published to the Report Repository and saved to a file on our network. Now I think I just need to create a third step to recall the PDF(s) and send the PDF(s) out as emails to our vendors.
I have found that the PDF information from Report Repository is stored in the Database in the CDM_LIST_VW record (this is a view and the main underlying table is CDM_LIST, but this contains what I need for now, so I'm going to try using it first). The Report ID is stored in the CONTENTID field and the Report Description (description shown on the Report Repository -- which in our case contains the email address) is stored in the CONTENT_DESCR field. So I am going to try over the next week to write the logic to query the CDM_LIST_VW for the data needed for the email address and the ReportID to go and grab the file....The hardest part is finding the actual file but I am hoping that I can also find a URL on that table. I'd pull the file from the network, but XML Publisher writes them out into numbered folders where all the PDFs are named the XML Report Defn - thus same name). I have not tried any of this yet, but am hoping I'm on the right path.
I hope this helped answer your question.
Good Luck!

How to find report values using report writer

How to find report values using report writer

Thanks all for the reply.
I am trying to solve a problem where report parameter value that is set at Management Console is wiped out after calling replaceConnection.
databaseController.replaceConnection(oldConnectionInfo, newConnectionInfo,
null,DBOptions._doNotVerifyDB);
We have to support changing database connection from a java utility
class. But once replaceConnection is called all existing static parameter values are lost. To fix this issue we thought of getting parameters and values before calling replaceConnection and setting it after replaceConnection.
Version is CS2008 SP3 - version 12.3.0.601
If there is any other option of fixing the original wipe out issue?
ParameterValues.getValues() didn't return value. I will try ParameterValues.getCurrentCalues() but the document says ParameterValues.getValues() is equivalent to the IParameterField.getCurrentValues() method unless it is empty, in which case it is equivalent to the IParameterField.getDefaultValues() method.
So getCurrentValues() may not work.

How could I pass parameter that depend on values in report from report to form?

In my case, I want to pass 'gno' and 'qno' values of report
to form. When click on the button then the form is showed.
There are automatically values in gno field on form so that user
don't complete this filed.
So I create a button on the report . I enter Javascript in
PL/SQL Code tab in '...after displaying the footer' as follow :
htp.formOpen
(owa_util.get_owa_service_path||'portal30.wwa_app_module.link?
p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=1736929105&p_arg_names=_show_h
eader&p_arg_values=YES&p_arg_names=GNO&p_arg_values=1&p_arg_names
=QNO&p_arg_values=2');
htp.formSubmit(null,'New Answer');
htp.formClose;
The above code can pass only static value, while I want to
pass values that depend on value in column of report to form.
So please tell me how can I pass this value to form. I look
forward to hearing from all of you. Please!!!!!!
Thank You

Can we apply saved filters to union reports in obiee 11g?

Hi All
Can we apply saved filters to union reports in obiee 11g?
I am able to apply saved filters for normal reports but not for union reports.
The catalog pane is blank, when i click on result columns or each criteria.
The only option i see is to manually create the filters for each criteria, dont i have any choice to use a saved filter for union report?
Is this a bug or something i am unaware of , Please guide me.
Regards
Pranati

I get the same issue. I thought that it's a problem in a security - the catalog pane is clear in a union report. But saved filters work in 11g. I migrated catalog from 10g to 11g and I see saved filters in the conditions. But you may add saved filters directly into xml. Go on Tab Advanced and edit Analysis XML. You have to add code like this
<sawx:expr xsi:type="sawx:savedFilter" path="/shared/FOLDER/_filters/FOLDER/FILTER_NAME" name="FILTER_NAME"/> in a right place.
